Really tired of the whole secret stuff. Does it really have any purpose? Does it help sales. Does it help people? It's probably gonna be something that no one expects. Like, Kid Icarus: Medusa's Revenge. Moan it's not Metroid. And it ends up selling poor.

It does. It provides impact to a reveal. Lets say this is shown at E3. People are in shock and awe because of this megaton announcement. If the info is leaked beforehand, people will say 'Oh I already know about that. Where is the new announcements?' Because of that leaked info, it makes people look for something else.

Guess I'm different. I don't care where things are released or how. I never get in awe anyway. I just never like the tease of. Oh, there is a new game we're working on. But I can't tell you. I want the info. Can't stand it personally.

You can look at MS E3 last year if you want proof. Almost the entire conference was leaked beforehand and because of that, most fans were not all that excited for it. Even though it was a quality E3 conference.

totally agree
